Patent CA-2778249-A1 (CA)
Inventor: SELIGMANN BRUCE
IPC: C12Q1/68
Filed: 2010-11-03
Abstract: The present invention provides a new approach, quantitative Nuclease Protection Sequencing (qNPS), for addressing several challenges that face sequencing and which provides improvements for research and diagnostic applications. The method uses a lysis-only nuclease protection assay to generate nucleic acid, e.g., DNA probes for sequencing, which can be coupled to gene-specific tags to permit the identification of the gene without necessitating the sequencing of the nuclease protection probe itself and/or can be coupled to experiment-specific tags whereby samples from different patients can be combined into a single run. The disclosed qNPS makes sequencing fixed or insoluble samples possible and affordable as a research and discovery tool and as a diagnostic test.

Abstract: A method for treating intractable pain via electrical stimulation of the spinal cord. Remote, non-contact stimulation of a selected region of spinal cord is achieved by placement of a transceiver patch directly on the surface of that region of spinal cord, with said patch optionally being inductively coupled to a transmitter patch of similar size on either the outer or inner wall of the dura surrounding that region of the spinal cord. By inductively exchanging electrical power and signals between said transmitter and transceiver patches, and by carrying out the necessary electronic and stimulus signal distribution functions on the transceiver patch, the targeted dorsal column axons can be stimulated without the unintended stray stimulation of nearby dorsal rootlets. Novel configurations of a pliable surface-sheath and clamp or dentate ligament attachment features which realize undamaging attachment of the patch to the spinal cord are described.

Title: Methods and device to reduce slosh energy absorption effects by reducing blood flow from the cranium
Inventor: SMITH DAVID
IPC: B64D10/00
Filed: 2011-10-11
Abstract: Venous compression in the neck reduced the extent of axonal injury in a standardized mild TBI model in rodents. The mechanism restricted brain venous drainage and increased the central nervous system blood volume and pressure, thus shifting intracranial physiology to the steep part of the volume-compliance curve. The lack of compliance inside the confines of the skull and spinal canal prevented slosh energy absorption and the resultant axonal injury by causing them to approach a more elastic collision when the skull was struck during the weight drop method. A first embodiment can be a device comprising a means to reduce SLOSH energy absorption in a fluid containing organism by reducing the flow of one or more outflow vessels of the cranium by compressing said vessels.
